Great Vintage Ammunition Packaging (23 Examples)

I happened to stumble upon some really awesome vintage design in the unexpected form of ammunition packaging. Here's a collection we gathered from around the web - we hope you'll find it as a source of inspiration.

What I liked most about some of the older boxes in this collection is  the heavy wordiness evident in most vintage packaging, the classy and ornate fonts and almost feminine detailing. The way the whole design pulls together gives me a truckload of inspiration for my next packaging design project. This stuff would totally inspire me for a single malt or beer label for instance, or maybe a men's body care collection.

Artist: Gemma Correll

A quick google of 'what i wore today' and you'll find pages of sites wanting to share their fashion savvy with their readers. Well, what if you're camera shy or what if you're not wearing anything 'branded' but still feel good about what you put together?  What if you were also an artist?

Pepsi vs. Coca Cola - the True Brand Evolution

There's been a startling logo evolution time line circulating on the web showing how Pepsi's logo keeps changing while Coca-Cola's remained consistently the same throughout history. This was proven to be somewhat inaccurate by Armin at Brand New (who prepared the true time line above). The evolution is very interesting. Pepsi can't seem to find a comfortable footing with its identity, but I really like how Coca-Cola has come full circle, re-embracing its origins in the 1940's iconic logo still familiar today.
